London colleges

edit

The system of the London colleges was quite different to Oxbridge, where admissions, course syllabi and the larger part of the teaching is done by the universities. In any case, it would not be incorrect to give, say 'Merton College, Oxford' in the education field of someone's infobox. Generally speaking, more specific is better if it does not lead to information overload. — Charles Stewart (talk) 13:17, 19 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

You really need to stop this as you misunderstand the situation. As our article says, LSE is "s member institution of the federal University of London." The key word there is "federal". Our article also says "LSE started awarding its own degrees in its own name in 2008,[7] prior to which it awarded degrees of the University of London." -- "it awarded" is the key bit there. When I studied for my post-grad degree at LSE neither students nor faculty considered themselves anything other than LSE students and faculty, not UL students or faculty.

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Honorary Degree Recipients of University of London

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Category:Honorary Degree Recipients of University of London requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Liz Read!
